La mucormicosis es una infección causada por un grupo de hongos llamados mucormycetes; a nivel rinocerebral se presenta con celulitis facial, cefalea, proptosis, movilización del diente afectado y secreción nasal.  Reporte de caso:  Se presenta a un paciente femenino de 57 años con antecedente de neumonía grave por COVID-19 con posterior desarrollo de absceso periodontal que ameritó extracción del segundo molar superior derecho con posterior formación de fistula. Se toma TC de macizo facial donde se evidencia erosión ósea con pérdida de la morfología habitual y en pared anterior del seno maxilar derecho. Se realiza biopsia reportando tejido óseo con elementos micóticos (hifas aseptadas) morfológicamente compatibles con mucor sp. Se realizó tratamiento con anfotericina B y hemimaxilectomia derecha. Actualmente se encuentra en tratamiento con pozaconazol, y lavados quirúrgicos.  Conclusión:  La enfermedad de COVID-19 es una enfermedad muy común actualmente a nivel mundial, por lo que es importante identificar y llevar un seguimiento de aquellas personas con factores de riesgo para desarrollar mucormicosis; el diagnóstico y un plan de tratamiento temprano es fundamental para evitar complicaciones, las cuales pueden originar un desenlace fatal.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract  Introduction:  During the current pandemic of COVID-19 multiple complications have developed after the disease, among which are fungal infections, such as mucormycosis, which can result directly from COVID-19 infection and/or as a side effect of the drugs used in its treatment. Mucormycosis is an infection caused by a group of fungi called mucormycetes; at the rhinocerebral level it presents with facial cellulitis, headache, proptosis, mobilization of the affected tooth and nasal secretion.  Case report:  the following is a 57-year-old female patient with a history of severe pneumonia due to COVID-19 with subsequent development of periodontal abscess that merited extraction of the upper right second molar with subsequent fistula formation. The patient started an infection with the presence of purulent secretion in the extraction area of the right molar. A CT scan of the facial mass was taken showing bone erosion with loss of the usual morphology in the right upper maxillary bone and anterior wall of the right maxillary sinus, as well as a biopsy of the right maxilla reporting bone tissue with mycotic elements (aseptates hyphae) morphologically compatible with mucor sp. Treatment with amphotericin B and right hemimaxillectomy was performed. She is currently being treated with pozaconazole and surgical washings.  Conclusion:  COVID-19 disease is currently a very common disease worldwide, so it is important to identify and follow up those people with risk factors for developing mucormycosis; early diagnosis and treatment plan is essential to avoid complications, which can lead to a fatal outcome.]]></p></abstract>
